Happy (Early) Mother’s Day, My Readers! Yes, It is that Time of Year, A Time to reflect, Love on, and Thank Your Mom! While We are at It, Have a Drink and Cheers to Your Mom! Now, I do realize that Mother’s Day occurs on Different Days around The World. While We at It, It is also known by a Different Name. For The Record, In The United States, It is known as Mother’s Day, The Second Sunday of May. Around The World like in The United Kingdom or Australia, It is known as “Mothering Sunday”. Come to Think of It, That has a Pleasant Ring to It. Mothering Sunday, It sounds to Me like a Mom-Honoring Version of Easter Sunday only, It is a Sunday for Moms or in This Case, Mothering. I Don’t Know What I would do without My Mom! I know Everyone says that but, I do mean It! She is The Most Awesome Mom! She does so much for The PTLS Family, as well as Myself and My Brother, Michael. Go Mom!
Anyway, To honor How Awesome My Mom is, as well as Other Moms,
I am going to Rerun a Christianville Classic Newsletter about a Question that I am sure that All of us Have, Why do We have Moms? I have decided to Make It Look lot better even though I am messing with The Original Newsletter! With that Said, My Mom is My Hero who comes along, with The Strength to Carry On!
As a Reminder, This Newsletter is a Christianville Classic, So You can check out This One and Many Others, on My Christianville Classics List.
So, A Bit of a Background here though, First of All, the Basics, This Newsletter was written on May 15th of 2013 (Refer to Newsletter 351). I’m not sure if I mentioned in The Newsletter below about The Origin but, Before This Newsletter entitled “Why We have Moms”, I had written one about “Why We have Children” so, If You Will, The “Why We Have Moms” was sort of an Extension, A Sequel to The “Why We have Children” Newsletter. (Refer to Newsletter 273; November 2011).
Anyway, I hope You know You PTLS Member Moms are Brilliant (I Love that Word!) Moms and My Mom is By Far, The Most Brilliant! This Christianville Classic is called “Why We Have Moms”. Enjoy and Happy Mother’s Day!
This Newsletter was written on May 15th of 2013 (Refer to Newsletter 351)
So, As You all know, Sunday was Mother’s Day here in The United States, I say that because Mother’s Day is on a different day in other parts of The World. But, Anyway, Mother’s Day is a very important holiday to Me because of one thing that I am ever grateful for, My Mom, as well as Moms in general. Moms are Awesome! But, Why do we have Moms? Now, I’m sure you are reading this, thinking, “Why do We Have Moms?! What kind of Crazy Question is that?!” and others would wonder and ponder about it.
So, I’m going to answer that question, “Why Do We Have Moms?”. Well, Truth is, there are a lot of reason why, but here are MY Reasons Why.
Why We Have Moms
++ They birthed us; through hard labor, sometimes, Hours of it. In My Mom’s Case, A C-section that she felt the whole time (the anesthesia didn’t work!)
++ They are our Secondary Quilt, Beanie Baby, or Blankie when we are Babies (Because We like to Snuggle)
++ They are “Best Friends” when we don’t have any Real Friends and They always will be, whether you like it or not.
++ In The 90’s (And, Probably still now) They are Our Seat Belts when someone slams on their brakes. Even though We already have our Seat Belt on.
++ They are our Protecter, Guard, and Guard-Rail Fence against Evil, Mean, or Hurtful Forces.
++ (If You Let Her Do This One, You are Lucky) They are Your Matchmaker. As in, walking up to the Prettiest Girl around and saying, “Hey, Check Out My Son, He’s a REALLY Good Catch!” and You always say, “Moooom!”. But, You never know if that girl might be the Girl of Your Dreams!
++ If You have a Bully or Hateful/Hurtful Person in Your Life, “Momma Bear” will come out and it will NOT be Pretty!
++ In My Case, If You have Special Needs, Your Mom will go to all lengths to get you what you need, help you in anyway possible, and be there for you when you need her. Even going through many teary-eyed and bull-headed IEP Meetings!
++ They know what is best for You, Way before You Do.
++ Most Importantly, They are Your Mother and Whether You Like it or Not, They will be the only person besides Your Soulmate that will be by your side Forever!
++ When It comes to Your Dreams, They will be do One (or All) of A Few Things; Be right beside You as You ride through It (like My Laser Hair Removal), Help You in The Middle of It, or Cheer The Loudest for You (Who is That?! Oh, That’s My Mom!) along The Side Lines.
++ In The Moment that You say, “I Do”. She will be There. Most likely in front cheering, following being in The Back, Crying Her Eyes out. (Ohh Mom!)
++ When You Graduate from High School or Any Life Event that is Important to both of You. Yep, She’ll be Crying there too.
++ They will always be There if You need to have a Heart-to-Heart Talk or Vice Versa, Where They have a Heart-to-Heart with You
++ They will let You go Whereever You want when You are an Adult on Three Conditions. One, It is not Dangerous. Two, It is not a Stupid Decision and, Three, You shall at some point, Come back and Live Near Mom (Or at Least, That is My Own Old-Fashioned Mom) Are You Listening, Michael?!
++ They will be Honest with You. Sometimes more than You want them to. But, Believe Me, You will be Grateful in The End.
++ They will have Many Talks with You. In One of Three Versions; Either a Heart-to-Heart Talk, “Step into My Office” (Sometimes Good and Sometimes Not) , or “A Come-to-Jesus Meeting”.
++ She’ll be there to Pick You Up if You are Down and Cheer when You are Up.
++ In My Case, they are your Road Buddy or Your Chauffeur when you want to go somewhere. By The Way, That is a Condition that Can not be taken advantaged of.
++ This may sound a bit too Honest, but from a Man’s View, Let’s face it, Your Family, Your House (applying to Guys), and Your Life would be a Mess without Your Mom.
++ No Matter How Young or Old You are, It is Perfectly Okay to say that You need Your Mommy.
So, Those are My Reason as to “Why We Have Moms”. All in All, My Mom and I have always had this system where I ask her, “Mom, Why do you do this?” and she answers, “It is in The Book of Moms!”.
Thanks for Reading The Christianville Spirit. Love Your Mom and Grandma with All You Got!
